I'm hoping someone can assist me. Okay, I'm doing more than hoping as I'm yanking big chunks of hair trying to get this figured out.
I have been happily working with Tapestry 4.0.2 in Eclipse using the Maven plugin. I'm not a Maven expert but I found out enough to get it going within Eclipse via the plugin. I added the dependency via Eclipse for Tapestry. When I type "tapestry" in the eclipse window for Maven, I only get options for 5.0.2 and 4.0.2. So I obviously went with 4.0.2. I then tried most unsuccessfully do get 4.1.1 to work by searching the archives, adding the snapshot repository to the pom.xml and the like. Okay, no big deal. I can shut Maven off and do this old school. So I disabled Maven for this project and downloaded 4.1.1 from: http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/tapestry/tapestry-project-4.1.1-bin .zip I then downloaded ognl from ognl.org and log4j. Now when I fire up my application (it's a trivial hello world application) I keep getting: Unable to construct service tapestry.enhance.ComponentConstructorFactory: Error building service tapestry.enhance.ComponentConstructorFactory: Failure invoking constructor for class org.apache.tapestry.services.impl.ComponentConstructorFactoryImpl: edu/emory/mathcs/backport/java/util/concurrent/locks/ReentrantLock I'm guessing I am missing a dependency but for the life of me I cannot figure this out. Here are the jars that I have: commons-beanutils-1.7.0.jar commons-codec-1.3.jar commons-fileupload-1.1.1.jar commons-io-1.1.jar commons-lang-2.2.jar commons-logging-1.0.3.jar hivemind-1.1.1.jar hivemind-lib-1.1.1.jar javassist-3.4.jar log4j-1.2.14.jar ognl-2.6.9.jar oro-2.0.8.jar tapestry-annotations-4.1.1.jar tapestry-contrib-4.1.1.jar tapestry-framework-4.1.1.jar tapestry-portlet-4.1.1.jar Apparently, something is amiss here. Anyone with any clue please please please can you assist? I don't want help (at this time) getting Maven to work. I'd like to just figure out what this rather cryptic error (at least to me) means and how to rectify it. The Maven stuff will just add a layer of complexity right now that I don't want to deal with (will soon though). Thanks for, up front, for any help that you can render. It seemed like such a simple thing according to the docs for the 4.1.1 tapestry. I'm not sure where I botched it. - Damian --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
